Man guys don't make light of this chance.  It is looking like not even all of us PGC people are gonna make it into this press conference.  I have to keep hoping that Jonny gets a call saying we get more tickets.

Since Canada is out of the question Im pretty sure my chances being in Colombia are basically non existant...

I have to finish this master's thesis though and cant afford a week of leisure, but if I could go Id actually do it and drop my career down the hole, so maybe all its for the best.

Ditto.  Nintendo is being verrrrryy picky this year about how many people are let in.  We are trying to beg and plead to get 5 from our staff in.  Last year we got everyone in which was over 20 people I think.  And that was with about 30 people at E3.

This year we have over 40....in 6 hotel rooms....eek.

They have this massive place yet they aren't gonna fill up all the seats? Stupid!

This would be SO FREAKING AWESOME, i'd get up there and hopefully they'll have DKJB2 and i'd beat off in front of the whole world, that's always been my dream. Just sitting in the audience would be enough for me, i'd be screaming the whole time. I'm signing up in the hope of showing off my gamer skillz to the world and seeing the conference in front of me rather than on a small video with bad framerate and delayed sound at 2am.

How many darn people are they inviting? Aren't they holding it at the Kodak Theater? Like... the oscars place? Like... HUGE?!?!

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

The main kodak theater holds about 3400 people.  But I have a good feeling the seating will be altered to accomodate press with camcorders and such.  The last few years in the ballroom it held about 1500 poeople.

They must be expecting looooooooooots of people coming to this.

Out of context, that sounds real bad.

Are you supposed to get an email confirmation that you signed up? I guess I'll find out when the spam rolls in, but the suspense is killing me.

That worried me too, I didnt get one, so I dont think they are sending them out.  So I guess we'll find out win they announce the winners.

I've must've been under a rock, since I'm clueless to what you're talking about...


The Star Wars kid was some kid who was fooling around in front of his school's video camera with a broom stick, pretending it was a light saber or something. He didn't rewind and it ended up on the web. Bring in someone who edits video and he now truly has a light saber, complete with sound effects and laser blasts.

The newly edited video brought tons of fame, money, and embarrassment for the guy. He could have milked it, but decided to have his mom tell everyone to leave him alone.

So imagine that happening to the winner of this contest.

Just do a search for "Star Wars Kid" on YouTube and you'll get a bunch of different edits. Some are dumb, some are funny.
